Councilman Basheer Jones was elected in November 2017, becoming Cleveland’s first Muslim council representative. From being a force for social justice to saying “Takbeer” in a city council chamber, Councilman Jones exemplifies what it means to be a proud Muslim.
During his #ConfidentMuslim session at the 43rd Annual ICNA-MAS Convention, Councilman Jones discusses racism, what builds a persons’ identity, and appreciating the struggles of the Muslims who laid out the foundation of our community in this country.
Stay tuned for the complete "I'll Speak for Change: Islam and Grassroots Politics" talkshow with Councilman Jones and Sh. Omar Suleiman.
